NO TIME !

Gosh, have you ever just had one of those days - or weeks for that matter - that seem as all you do is run, run, run ?! Yikes - it ceratinly has been that way here this week.

So finally I get a second to sit and I am going to write a blog !

Most of this week it has been uncooperative weather wise, but we did have one nice day, so I made sure to get as much use out of it as possible. I was able to finish up mowing the yard, hopefully for what will be the last time this year and put all the summer things away and get the start of the fall decor out. We cleaned out the remainder of the garden and got all of our goods out of it besides the few remaining pumpkins that we had. I tidy's - or better yet, started to tidy up the garage, but it is still messy, so I will have to get out there before long and finish. Being a perfectionist doesn't come easy when it is cold ... but it will have to get done.

Over the last few days we decided to keep our storage unit thingy throughout winter and just pile up everything in there till spring time and then try to have another yard sale. It makes it easier for me once holiday time comes and I can weed through the stuff we want to get rid of then. I simply just find it kind of hard to do right now and frankly just don't want to. The holidays are pretty notorious for not being my fave times anyway. I would much rather kick back on a beach someplace and celebrate that way. :O) Could be just cuz it is cold out, but being that I so hate cold, that is a good enough reason.

So, besides that - we all got our Flu shots and that went well. We get them every year and because of my health problems the docs have always said it was best anyway. I have had phneumonia twice now and KNOW that I do NOT E.V.E.R. want to do that again !

Went to get the little ones some fall clothes and a few outfits in LaCrosse too. I managed pretty well and spent about 50 on each. I got alot of nice things and all Gap or Gymbo. My faves. They wear sooo soo well !

Finished Camerons birthday shopping up. His 5th birthday is on the 5th. We ordered him a Thomas Cake and got him all kinds of Thomas the Train things. I can't wait ! I always get more excited just waiting for them to get excited !! lol.  Wow, time flies - I can't believe that he is going to be 5 already !

Went to the doc today - finally. (For those of you who don't follow my blogs regularly, I was waiting a long time because of health insurance issues) Seems as though he wasn't as happy with the Prednisone I was given, but I was. :O) That crap makes me feel so good and I know that is what made my week last week. He says though that he thinks it just might be masking the problem and don't want to do that. SIGH ... I know - I know .. with my health history and all you'd think I would be happy, but part of me just wants to feel better. I will admit - and ONLY to you - my dear internets - that I am just a tad scared. My doc ordered so many tests for me starting on Monday that the thought reminds me of growing up with my mother who had Cancer 4 times. - and being that everyone in my family has had it after the age of 35 and I will be 35 in November ... well, you get the idea. I certainly got enough going on and don't want to include being any worse in my normal of health.

So Monday I have to have a ultrasound done and then some blood tests .. fun fun .. but hopefully it might provide some answers. My doc says that he seems to think that I have TWO  things going on at once with the bleeding and the Colitis. A possible infection ? Great... just what I needed - right ?! So a colonoscopy might be needed as well. BOY, I am loving this whole getting older thing - NOTHIN' like something being shoved up your ass to make you feel wonderful !? HAHA !

Sigh, and during all that I forgot to tell him that I can't friggin open a Band-Aid wrapper anymore without pain ! Geeze. Like I said, getting old is fun ! Soooo - looks like the whole baby thing is off - atleast for now anyway, unless the Lord decides otherwise in the meantime.:O)

Body cleanse though is now in full effect. Today was certainly my LAST day of hole hogging it. I know I said that last week, but this is it. I have no soda or goodies left in the house and I am NOT buying them ! I figure it won't go into my face if it isn't here .. lol.  My kids have never been allowed to eat alot of junk anyway, I am really weird about what they put into thier bodies, yet I never was my own - so it is time. No more junk. I am even going so far as not even letting myself have Tylenol or too many of my meds unless I am railing in pain. It might be hard, but I do want to total body cleanse to happen. It is high time for me to get healthy. And I know that if I keep putting it off - I will just always have some excuse. So better time is now and just do it !

In other good news though. I went to Anytime Fitness today and did my full sign up - for reals this time and got my keys and t-shirts ! I am excited to start ! My starting weight I will post on Fridays and keep you all updates so that I can remain accountable throughout. I am going to make a goal that is attainable and make myself stick to it. Like I said in a previous blog, it may take me awhile, but when I want something, I go get it and now is the time ! I guess everyone has to do things on their own time - right  ?!

Other than that - Brittany got asked to Homecoming at the school by our next door neighbor boy  - the game is tonight and the dance tommorrow. He seems nice and polite, but both Adam and I sat and thought about the situation before we said yes. Jordan will be going with her as a chapparone though and that was the only way it would have ever happened. I never went to school shindigs, but hope that she has fun. Not too crazy about the other kids though.

Well, my friends, thank you for reading all that. I know I haven't been around that much but schooling and stuff has taken presedence at the moment and so being over at FB with updates has proved to be easier for me currently.  I will plan on doing a weekly blog for the time being and hope to see you all then ! Hope that you all are well !

TAMMIE :o)
